Spiritual Pedagogy of the Heart

What does it mean to read Rūmī’s Mathnawī pedagogically? This volume explores one of the most significant works of Islamic intellectual history as a resource for contemporary educational questions. The contributions demonstrate how heart-centered education, narrative, aesthetic, and interreligious learning can contribute to holistic education. At its core lies the question of how meaning, ethical orientation, and spiritual depth can be fostered within educational processes. Bringing together theological, philosophical, and religious educational perspectives, the volume is intended for scholars, students, and practitioners.
